A fascinating bit of logic for your Thanksgiving torpor. Check this out, apparently you can’t build any non-Muslim places of worship in Saudi Arabia because (obviously) all religions other than Islam are false. As means of explaining his point Dr. Zakir Naik compared this to choosing to hire math a teacher who cannot add.

Right doc, except in reality all of the religious “math teachers” in your example are adding 2+2…and coming up with fractions. You ignorant knob.

I don’t have too many ten year old heroes but Will Phillips fits the bill. Kudos sir. I think I will be starting a college fund for him now so he will be covered when he eventually goes to Harvard. I smell a Supreme Court nomination in his future. You read it here first.

I was amused watching this because it’s one of the few times I’ve seen an interviewer force an anti-abortion advocate to really confront the empty rhetoric of their position. I couldn’t believe it as I was listening and sensed exactly where Chris Matthews was going with his counterpoint following a common line of reasoning I myself have used in the past. Where the Bishop is used to being able to chastise lawmakers from his high moral perch with impunity Matthews forced the Bishop to complete the thought process and define the precise ramifications of such “moralistic” platitudes. Bla bla bla, enough from me, just watch this and be amazed.
